CortlandBy O.F. Them...Fred Woodly,who had been sick for a month or more with typhoid fever, died Thursday, at 8 a. m., in Chicago, in the employ of Coxe Bros. Coal Co.

The remains arrived here Thursday night. The funeral will be held on Saturday at 2 p. m.3

CortlandBy O.F. Them...Mr. Will Wood, who came to Cortland with the remains of his friend, Fred Woodly, returns tomorrow. Mr. Wood is employed in the Stock Yards, Chicago, and is a fine young business man. He leaves with the heartfelt thanks of the entire community for his many acts of kindness to Fred during his last sickness. He was at the bedside a great deal of the time, and his kindness will be ever remembered with gratefulness by the grief-stricken family.

In the death of Fred Woodly, Cortland , loses one of her brightest young business men; one who had been promoted four times during the six months he was employed by the Coxe Bros. Coal Co. When we consider his age, having just attained his majority, he has not been excelled by any young men in our county. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. L. Crammer at the church, which could not begin to hold the large assembly. The Coxe Bros. firm was represented at the funeral and presented a beautiful floral anchor resting on a rock of vernal green; his friends from the city presented a beautiful floral panel, which, together with those presented by friends here, were the handsomest floral tributes ever witnessed here. His remains were laid by the side of his father, who died less than two years ago. He leaves a mother, one brother and a host of friends to mourn his loss. November 8.3
